zero-waste items available on the market.

and other important functions into a single system.The more filtering stages there are, the
4. purer the water will be. SomeRO systems incorporateauto flush timers to assure continual
purification and extend the membrane filter's life.

of maintaining the product should be included. Also consider the brand's warranty length
and post-purchase service levels.

hidden cost. Unless it is questioned. As a customer, you must make know the registration
fee and processing fee. Make yourself clear and not feeling being cheated by the hidden
cost later.

electricity, making them ideal for houses with severe power outages. If there is no
5. electricity, an ultraviolet (UV) filter will not work since it relies on energy to produce
ultraviolet light that kills microorganisms.An RO system would not function without energy
since it relies on electricity to provide sufficient water pressure for the RO membrane.
Activated carbon purifiers, like sediment filters and ultra-filters, do not require energy (UF).
Non-electric purifiers can only remove some of the chemicals dissolved in water, as well
as germs and sand, whereas RO and UV systems can remove TDS and bacteria that
cause waterborne diseases.
